IntlDateFormatter::setLenient -- datefmt_set_lenient — Set the leniency of the parser

### Beschreibung

Objektorientierter Stil

public IntlDateFormatter::setLenient(bool `$lenient`): void

Prozeduraler Stil

datefmt_set_lenient(IntlDateFormatter `$formatter`, bool `$lenient`): void

Define if the parser is strict or lenient in interpreting inputs that do not match the pattern exactly. Enabling lenient parsing allows the parser to accept otherwise flawed date or time patterns, parsing as much as possible to obtain a value. Extra space, unrecognized tokens, or invalid values ("February 30th") are not accepted.

### Parameter-Liste

`formatter`

  The formatter resource

`lenient`

  Sets whether the parser is lenient or not, default is `true` (lenient).

### Rückgabewerte

Gibt bei Erfolg `true` zurück. Bei einem Fehler wird `false` zurückgegeben.

### Beispiele

Beispiel #1 datefmt_set_lenient() example

`<?php
$fmt = datefmt_create(
'en_US',
IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
'America/Los_Angeles',
IntlDateFormatter::GREGORIAN,
'dd/MM/yyyy'
);
echo 'lenient of the formatter is : ';
if ($fmt->isLenient()) {
echo 'TRUE';
} else {
echo 'FALSE';
}
datefmt_parse($fmt, '35/13/1971');
echo "\n Trying to do parse('35/13/1971').\nResult is : " . datefmt_parse($fmt, '35/13/1971');
if (intl_get_error_code() != 0) {
echo "\nError_msg is : " . intl_get_error_message();
echo "\nError_code is : " . intl_get_error_code();
}
datefmt_set_lenient($fmt, false);
echo "\nNow lenient of the formatter is : ";
if ($fmt->isLenient()) {
echo 'TRUE';
} else {
echo 'FALSE';
}
datefmt_parse($fmt, '35/13/1971');
echo "\nTrying to do parse('35/13/1971').\nResult is : " . datefmt_parse($fmt, '35/13/1971');
if (intl_get_error_code() != 0) {
echo "\nError_msg is : ".intl_get_error_message();
echo "\nError_code is : ".intl_get_error_code();
}
?>`

Beispiel #2 OO example

`<?php
$fmt = new IntlDateFormatter(
'en_US',
IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
'America/Los_Angeles',
IntlDateFormatter::GREGORIAN,
'dd/MM/yyyy'
);
echo 'lenient of the formatter is : ';
if ($fmt->isLenient()) {
echo 'TRUE';
} else {
echo 'FALSE';
}
$fmt->parse('35/13/1971');
echo "\n Trying to do parse('35/13/1971').\nResult is : " . $fmt->parse('35/13/1971');
if (intl_get_error_code() != 0) {
echo "\nError_msg is : " . intl_get_error_message();
echo "\nError_code is : " . intl_get_error_code();
}
$fmt->setLenient(FALSE);
echo "\nNow lenient of the formatter is : ";
if ($fmt->isLenient()) {
echo 'TRUE';
} else {
echo 'FALSE';
}
$fmt->parse('35/13/1971');
echo "\n Trying to do parse('35/13/1971').\nResult is : " . $fmt->parse('35/13/1971');
if (intl_get_error_code() != 0) {
echo "\nError_msg is : " . intl_get_error_message();
echo "\nError_code is : " . intl_get_error_code();
}
?>`

Das oben gezeigte Beispiel erzeugt folgende Ausgabe:

    lenient of the formatter is : TRUE
    Trying to do parse('35/13/1971').
    Result is : 66038400
    Now lenient of the formatter is : FALSE
    Trying to do parse('35/13/1971').
    Result is :
    Error_msg is : Date parsing failed: U_PARSE_ERROR
    Error_code is : 9
